Re: First world problems

... Tres Frijoles' story about the mercado, where he watched a kid pick up straws off the ground, rinse them off, and sell them.

Condoms and soda straws - make sure they're in the original sealed package.

What is it about Nicas and their obsession with drinking soda from a straw? Is it that the sensation of lips against the rim of a glass is unpleasant, or somehow uncouth? It can't be that they think the glass is less hygienic, afterall it contains their drink.

Hey, on the landfill problem: perhaps California should allow a few of Managua's Chureca boys to immigrate for the purpose of teaching creative recycling.
